Former president Donald Trump disseminated on social media on Friday an image of President Biden with his hands and feet tied and his mouth gagged, the latest example of the Republican candidate’s use of increasingly violent rhetoric and imagery this campaign season.

The image can be seen about halfway through a 20-second video that Trump posted on his Truth Social site. The post says it was recorded Thursday on Long Island, where Trump traveled this week to attend a wake for a recently killed police officer.

In the video, two trucks decorated with giant Trump flags and altered American flags are driving on a highway. On the tailgate door of one of the trucks is the image of Biden lying horizontally, bound and gagged.

Trump has a history of sharing and promoting violent images featuring his perceived enemies.

    is the policies that may destroy the lives of whatever minorities the Republicans decide to target

    What paticular policies could do this?

    But do you not understand my point, I feel like this whole post is the meme where you have the dog in hell saying “At least we dont have mean tweets!” I look and see multiple things about how trump is mean and then there is not a single notice how things are falling apart (other than gaza).
